About Us
Clare Language Centre has been providing
English courses for over 20 years. Adults,
teenagers and children can enrol with us. As we
are also a teacher training school, we give high
quality English language programmes to all of our
students.
Where are we?
Why us?
We are based in Ennis, County Clare in the West of
Ireland along the world famous Wild Atlantic Way.
Our nearest airport is Shannon, just 20 minutes
away and we are approximately two and a half
hours from Dublin airport. The Atlantic coastline
and the world famous Cliffs of Moher are on our
doorstep!!
Irish people are known for their friendliness
and hospitality and especially so in the West of
Ireland. Our host families are fantastic and are all
personally known to us. The town of Ennis has
only 30,000 habitants so it´s safe and secure and
you can walk anywhere easily. Our teachers are all
qualified EFL professionals from English speaking
countries.
